Degree Programs
The department offers the Bachelor of Science degree. Majors in the department include biology, molecular biology, forensic biology, environmental and field biology, and medical laboratory science. Opportunities exist in premedical sciences (including pre-dentistry, pre-medicine, pre-occupational therapy, pre-optometry, pre-physician assistant, pre-physical therapy and pre-veterinary medicine).
In addition, many students find it desirable and career advantageous to have a second major or minor during their undergraduate program. Special requirements for all majors: MFT (Major Field Test), ALL biology courses must have a minimum grade of "C" or better..
